Single Electron Probes of Fractional Quantum Hall States

When electrons are confined to a two dimensional layer with a perpendicular applied magnetic field, such that the ratio of electrons to flux quanta \((\nu)\) is a small integer or simple rational value, these electrons condense into remarkable new phases of matter that are strikingly different from...
